Art created to explore the deep,
multifaceted personalities that make us who we are.

 

Through my portraits, I seek to connect with others, transcending differences and tapping into the shared emotions that bind us. I aim to evoke a sense of nostalgia and personal connection, offering a window into human complexity through the lens of fantastical characters.

By merging oil and acrylic mediums, I create high-contrast, colorful portraits that bring these unreal characters to life in striking detail. Each piece blends the fantastical with the realistic, often using abstract backgrounds to make the characters' essence truly stand out. My work is inspired by the rich emotional tapestry of humanity, drawing occasional influence from the animal kingdom to deepen the narrative.

I invite you to explore my collection of paintings, where emotions and stories unfold through vivid portraits that capture both intensity and calm. Join me on a journey of connection, emotion, and exploration through art that not only catches the eye but engages the heart and mind.

 

Shipping Multiple Canvases

Shipping for one or two canvases is calculated at checkout based on size and destination.
If your order includes three or more original paintings, or if the combined size/weight exceeds our shipping tiers, additional shipping charges may apply.
In these rare cases, we’ll contact you after your order is placed to arrange the most efficient and secure delivery method.

Paintings are professionally packed by UPS and include a protective boxing service to ensure safe transit.

Jewelry Packaging

In order to keep your shipping costs low, and reduce environmental impact, multiple jewelry pieces purchased in the same order will be shipped together in one box whenever possible. Each piece will still be wrapped and protected with care.

If you’re sending gifts to different recipients or need separate packaging, feel free to leave a note at checkout — I'm happy to accommodate when I can!

Hanging Your Art

Original artworks are shipped ready to hang, with hardware installed.
That said, we are not liable for any damage or injury resulting from improper installation, faulty wall anchors, or mishandling once the piece is delivered.
Please follow proper wall mounting practices and consult a professional if needed.

Returns

Because each piece is original and made with care, all sales are final on original artwork.
However, if your piece arrives damaged, please contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos so we can work with the shipping provider on a resolution.

For all other items (such as prints or jewelry), returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery:

  • Items must be in original condition

  • Buyer is responsible for return shipping

  • A 10% restocking fee may apply

Please reach out prior to returning anything to receive authorization and instructions.

Caring for your canvas

Each canvas is sealed with Gamblin Cold Wax Medium, a high-quality finishing wax that provides a soft matte finish, surface protection and a subtle, even sheen. Cold wax may develop a soft patina over time — this is natural and part of the medium’s charm.

  • Do not use cleaning sprays, water, or cloths with solvents

  • If needed, gently dust with a dry, soft microfiber cloth

  • Avoid hanging in high humidity environments (e.g., bathrooms)

  • Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve vibrancy

Caring for your Jewelry

Your jewelry is designed to last and to be loved — a little care goes a long way in keeping it beautiful for years to come.

  • Put jewelry on last — after perfume, lotion, and hairspray

  • Take it off first — before showering, swimming, sleeping, or working out

  • Store pieces in a soft pouch or separate box to prevent scratching

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, humidity, and heat

  • If your piece includes mixed materials (e.g., metal + gemstone + pearl), always clean it based on the most delicate element. When in doubt: soft cloth, no chemicals, dry storage

Metals

  • To remove tarnish or fingerprints, gently polish with a soft jewelry cloth

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or household metal polish

  • Avoid soaking jewelry in commercial cleaning solutions, especially if it contains stones or pearls

Gemstones

  • Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth

  • Use a small drop of mild dish soap in warm water for extra cleaning (no soaking)

  • Dry completely before storing

  • Avoid ultrasonic cleaners unless the stone is known to be stable (e.g., not opals, turquoise, or emeralds)

Pearls

  • Pearls are porous and delicate — treat them gently!

  • Never soak pearls in water or expose them to harsh chemicals

  • Avoid any jewelry cleaner or metal polishing dip — these can ruin the nacre (surface glow)

  • Wipe pearls with a clean, soft cloth after wearing to remove skin oils

  • Store them separately in a cloth-lined box or pouch
